The Hummer

Looking out our kitchen window yesterday we could see what looked to be a humming bird, wings spread apart in flight, but as if it was standing on the snow. We quickly realized that the snow had melted so that you could see the small bird attached to the bird bath--you could only see the bird. Seeing this little, metal bird, all alone, made us realize that although the snow is melting, we still have 3-4 feet in most places here at Shaver. The birdbath is about that tall.

It really is interesting to watch the snow melt revealing all those things in and around you that you have not been able to see since the fall.
